Hope she’s really alive, but her life will never be the same after these horrible events :(

It’s because Reddit is still alive and well and Lemmy just doesn’t offer enough to be a serious alternative (yet)

The instance browser should show the instance URL as well to be able to distinguish all those instances called “Lemmy”

And it would be helpful if we could search for an instance to set as well. It’s a long list to scroll through.

Yeah but that’s not quite what I want. On Synch for reddit I have the option to filter out porn nsfw - that’s what I am looking for.

That said, I would prefer if Lemmy had proper filter options. As long as something is within the law, I am okay with others to consume it, even if I don’t want to consume it. It’s like political opinions, religions etc. Stay within the law and you can do whatever you want - I don’t always like it, but as long as I can filter it out I am fine with it existing.

Tbh, I feel like it actually should be defederated. I am not against porn, I literally made an account there like I have a separate account on reddit for porn, but I would love to not have all the porn stuff flooding the feed on my sfw account. Sadly there are no convenient filter options yet as it seems.

I love how the many users are quick to call mods power hungry. Some of these people spent hundreds of hours building up a subreddit and maintaining it and you call them power hungry because they don’t want to lose what they worked so passionate for - for free.

Lol Lemmy has risen and fallen pretty quickly it seems.

I have to be honest, currently I don’t see myself staying on Lemmy over Reddit.

All I want it browsing communities (subreddits) as easy and accessible as possible. I spend most of my time on my frontpage and r/all, the “it just works” feeling is nothing that Lemmy gives me so far.

Lemmy seems to be a thing for enthusiast. I have my doubt it will stick with the everyday average user.

Idk, I love comment chains like that. The funny comments, references or comment interactions are often the funniest thing about a post.

This is an absolute fair take. The question is to ask is “what does Lemmy want to be”

If they want to be the “new” Reddit, some changes need to be made (again, imo)

If they want to be themselves no matter what, it’s okay to keep it like it is and see if it sticks with people or not.

I am brutally honest here - I want it to be Reddit, just better. Reddit, but without the same old mistakes. It’s the best Reddit alternative I see so far so I would hope that it would take the spot and make the changes to be that beautiful Reddit experience but improved.

I feel that’s an unfair thing to say. Lets be real here, the Creation Engine that runs Starfield isn’t the same engine that runs Fallout 4 or Skyrim. It’s a new version of that engine. When Unity, Unreal or Anvil (just to name a few) release new versions of their engine everyone is like “wow, so much better, so much more possibilities” When Bethesda releases a new version of the CE, everyone is like “Yeah but it’s still the garbage CE” although the CE is a very powerful engine when you think what it really enables them to do (and how easy accessible it is for modders)

My point is, of course we can end up with a CPU bound game again, but before we know for sure, we should give Bethesda the benefit of the doubt.

But that is exactly what I don’t think should be the case - it should be a hub that has ALL content from ALL the instances. The users itself should decide what to see and what not. Content filtered by an instance should only happen when you are browsing on that instance itself.

Someone mentioned I probably mean a client and I might really mean that. Like I said, a big hub for all the lemmy content, for all your lemmy accounts, where you can edit the content you want to see (like enable/disable PORN NSFW, NSFW in general, specific countries or whatever)

Idk, if they release a game in 2023 that is still CPU bound that would be a big L from them. I really hope that’s not the case.

Especially because I bought a freaking 7900 XTX mainly for Starfield :D

I am maybe describing it badly, but I mean something instance independent. A hub of sort. Something that is “the frontpage of Lemmy” so to speak.

I dont wan’t to change any of the core functions of Lemmy, like what I think would still include all the instances and stuff, but it could all be accessed from that main hub as well.

Maybe you could compare it to an app that lets you switch between several accounts for the same service. Or even connect several accounts for the same service.

I do not have much technical knowledge, I can only describe my thoughts on “that’s how I think it should look and work” and not “that’s how it could work from a technical pov”

So it’s possible that I ask for a client? You mean like what third party apps do for reddit?

I think they should at least give console players the choice between 4k 30 fps or 1080p 60 fps Let’s be realistic here, 4k 60fps for a game of this size in this engine will require a BEEFY machine, nothing a current gen console can offer.

Reddit probably be like “we had sooooo many users these days that our servers went out. But we cannot provide any numbers, we lost all the server data”

Reddit speedrun to ruin their site
